<P>Traffic jams happen when something -- anything -- blocks a busy
intersection.

<P>You'll receive a dispatch message, and a line on your city map
extends from you to the traffic jam. A traffic jam icon will appear
on your city map for each additional traffic problem.

<P>Use your spotlight and megaphone to re-route traffic from
intersections near the jam.

<P>You should also dispatch police to help clear the traffic jam.
Police "unjam" traffic by being near it. The jam is considered
cleared when traffic flows freely.

<P>If the traffic jam is caused by burning debris, you must put out
the fire, after which the debris disappears. Even after debris is
cleared, cars may still be jammed and need messages to become "free."


<P>You receive your bonus payment and points if the jam is cleared
within a certain time.
